Dear Prime Minister of Pakistan,

We the undersigned would like to strongly request you to make Pakistan a signatory to THE CONVENTION ON THE RIGHTS OF PERSONS WITH DISABILITIES, (http://www.un.org/dis...) and to ratify it. The Convention was adopted on 13 December 2006 at the United Nations Headquarters in New York, and was opened for signature on the 30 March 2007. At present there are 102 signatories to the Convention.

We the children and young people[in particular] of Pakistan feel very strongly that as a country it is critical that we "promote, protect and ensure the full and equal enjoyment of all human rights by persons with disabilities". Through becoming a signatory to the Convention, and by ratifying it, we hope Pakistan will join other countries of the world in making a positive commitment to: "Respect the rights of persons with disabilities, protect the rights of persons with disabilities and fulfill the rights of persons with disabilities".

Sincerely,

The Undersigned
